I have recently discovered Mexican molletes and become fascinated by them. This delicious dish is made with rolls cut in half, adding refried beans, cheese, and sauce. They’re easy to make and you can serve them for breakfast, send them in your kids’ lunchboxes or as a light snack. The basic molletes are usually served with sauce, but you can be creative and use different ingredients.
